Now that most of the series of the past Spring and Summer Season are about to end, it’s time to reflect on them again, and how they matched up to previous years. My general impression...

The highlights are of course Canaan from the Type-Moon team, Umineko from Higurashi creators and SHAFT's second TV show this...

First with the exception of FMA, Hayate and Polyphonica, all other series are new. Another noteworthy fact is that all series are adaptions from manga, novels or games with Eden and Basquash as the only exceptions! As for my expectations ...

I spent a couple weeks in Tokyo last month and have since been finding ways to raise some cash in hopes of returning for a bit in March. I still haven’t found a full time job yet, so you can imagine things have been a bit of a pain in the ass.Tokyo was...

It could be I don't have any taste, but I'm going to try to provide a better review of the series.In brief, the show is divided roughly in half between four main characters. Allison and Wil...

It included a surprisingly positive bit about Allison and Lillia:I had a lot of misgivings about this show after the first episode. Hell, I had a lot of misgivings about this show after the first arc. But as the...

I feel as though the characters are now put out of their misery: when they are so lively and engaging it feels like an act of cruelty to even watch them go through such an embarrassment...

It is a good stuff throughout, which pains me to trim (such as the bland directon), but I would like to comment on the adventure part:[] Allison and Lillia pulsates with light-hearted energy and tries diligently to capture the pure spirit of adventure....
